How to remove catalogs,datasets,...

[SanchezManuelM]

Hey! First of all, great work! I already installed my personal FDP Server and it works fine. My only question is how can I remove catalogs, datasets and so on? I see the option to add new information using the FDP Client but I can't find how to remove them.

Thank you!

Thanks @SanchezManuelM :-)

Perhaps you are logged in as a normal user instead of an admin user?

Normal users cannot delete resources, whereas admin users can.

For example, here's what a normal user sees when editing a catalog they created:

and here's what an admin sees when editing the same catalog:

Note the "delete" button in red on the right-hand side of the screen.

Hello! That's rare... I logged in with the admin user albert.einstein@example.com and I don't have the Delete option.
This is how my catalog page looks like:

I don't have the option neither when I create a new catalog.

Hi @SanchezManuelM depending on which version of the FDP you are running, it is possible that the default example admin has changed. Could you try logging in as admin@example.com with the same default password?

It worked! Thank you very much for your help @dennisvang !

No problem, I'm just glad it's working now. :-) I'll make another note of this for the upcoming documentation updates.
